This project is a great introduction to lace. Although the pattern has a complex look, like many lace patterns it is actually a few rows shifted and repeated multiple times.

The traveling stitches throughout the bodice of the shell can be completed with or without a cable needle. Wear each piece separately or together as a twin set. The linen yarn allows for both easy wear and easy care. This set is sure to become a favorite for many occasions.
